Satellite Dish Installation in Lerwick
Lerwick (Shetland Islands, pop. ~7k) takes its Freeview signal from the Bressay mast, 3 km to the east. For satellite installation, tell us your postcode and your enquiry goes to the installer covering Lerwick — one company, no lead auction.
Reception in Lerwick
Lerwick receives Freeview from the Bressay transmitter , broadcasting on Group A with horizontal polarisation at 10 kW.
Aerials here point E (bearing ~101°) toward the mast, 3 km away. At 3 km from the mast, signal in Lerwick is strong — a standard 18-element yagi, often loft-mounted, is usually all that's needed.
Where terrain or buildings shadow Bressay, installers working Lerwick can often realign to Keelylang Hill (172 km south-west) or Rosemarkie (333 km south-west) — a decision made with a signal meter on the roof, not guesswork.
Primary transmitter for Shetland.
